Chapter 500 The Guidance of Paper Crane
Light refracts and twists, pa.s.sing through the colorful tunnel. Lin Luoran let go of Baojia’s arm unconsciously because of the tearing force of s.p.a.ce. Light flashes in front of her and she misses one step. She plops into a damp and cold place.
The tearing force makes her dizzy for a while. Lin Luoran jumps up lightly as soon as her toes wetted by the water of the pool. She only wets her shoes and socks a little bit.
Lin Luoran stops above a steaming, misty, and quiet lake. The water is shallow with a little ripple under which swims small fish. Time pa.s.ses quietly without traces here. A kingfisher sings from the lakesh.o.r.e in the distance. It is the beauty of natural mountains. Is this the Country of the Green Mountains?
Reiki here is abundant. Together with Bermuda’s Secret Territory and Penglai immortal world, now she knows three excellent places for personal ability enhancement. There are still some ways out for cultivators on earth. It’s just that ordinary cultivators have no luck or chance to find the entrance to the blessed land easily.
Lin Luoran still holds the 10,000-year Hollow Azurite in her left hand tightly. However, looking around, she can not find Baojia or Unscented and has no clues where they are.
Lin Luoran smiles helplessly and gives the 10,000-year Hollow Azurite back to White Fairy. She then takes out a blank piece of paper from the s.p.a.ce.
Lin Luoran’s fingertips move flexibly, and the white paper has become a small paper crane.
She mutters and makes a strange print with her hands. Seeing that the paper crane is about to fly, she bites her middle finger to get a drop of pure blood and merges it into the paper crane.
When the blood disappears, she then presents the image of a cyan little fox and Liao in the air. Lin Luoran makes them into foggy sacred pearls and immerses them in the paper crane.
It is easy to make a paper crane to send a message. However, it has to rely on the person who folds the paper crane to cultivate with his or her spiritual mind. Only in this way can paper cranes released by receivers accurately find original owners.
To find people in the vast world by paper cranes, pure blood of the caster is a method besides taking something from the target person as the medium—the higher the caster’s personal ability is, the more accurate the paper crane can find the target people. Lin Luoran is not very confident but only hope this method can work.
Lin Luoran also follows behind in the wind when the paper crane spreads its wings to fly under the guidance of a mysterious force.
There is plenty of Reiki here. The paper crane is charged with important tasks and it doesn’t fly very fast. Lin Luoran flies above the lake without hurries and follows behind. She now has a panoramic view of the scenery.
When flying higher, they find that clouds are floating beside and mountains pa.s.sing by beneath. There are ranges of mountains and every mountain forest has an unspeakable pleasure of the wild, which attracts people who are struggling in the earthly world to come and live in this place.
The world of Green Mountains is really a paradise, no wonder Liao is obsessed with it.
Lin Luoran lowers her head. If some day she reunites with her family, she will find a savage wild planet with plenty of Reiki, or a Secret Territory comparable to the Green Mountains to farm and cultivate from then on. She will travel all over the rivers and mountains and wanders the stars in her spare time. The days will be better than being immortals.
After solving the matter in the Green Mountains, she has to gather the five elements of the Taoist root as soon as possible. Lin Luoran makes up her mind secretly.
The paper crane is flying very slow. Lin Luoran looks around all the way. The Green Mountains are rich in species with strange flowers, weeds, snakes, and insects everywhere. In addition to some common monsters, there are also many rare and exotic animals. However, she does not find any of them having personal ability. How strange it is!
Even if the monsters are hard to be intelligent, many of them should have absorbed Reiki since they have stayed in a place like Green Mountains for such a long time.
Lin Luoran keeps these unreasonable things in mind and sharpens her vigilance.
Keeping flying for two days, the paper crane finally runs out of its strength. At the moment it stops winging and is about to fall, it is caught by Lin Luoran.
Since the world is boundless and vast for sure, Lin Luoran doesn’t expect to find the endpoint within two days. However, just when she drips pure blood into it again, the quiet paper crane burns without any flames and turns into ashes in front of her.
“Kind of Interesting.”
The fire phoenix has the highest personal ability in the s.p.a.ce and knows well about the s.p.a.ce. Since Lin Luoran entered the Green Mountains world, fire phoenix has been paying attention to the outside world. Green Mountains are nothing like the place it saw before. When the paper crane burns without fire, fire phoenix finally can’t control its surprise.
Lin Luoran’s spiritual power moves, “Fire phoenix, have you been to the Green Mountains world before?”
Fire phoenix laughs and says, “When I was here, the Green Mountains and the Earth today were all the wilds. There are no boundaries between them. Those foxes were cunning and sly. They used external forces to separate the Green Mountains from the wilds. Now… it’s the doomsday of the Earth but the Green Mountains are still preserved with abundant Reiki.”
Fire phoenix’s words inspire Lin Luoran, “Why did the nine-tailed family suddenly want to separate the Green Mountains from the wild and make it an independent world? When the Earth enters the decay period of cultivation with declining Reiki, the Green Mountains, however, remains the same. Is it possible that the Nine-tailed Fox family has predicted such a day for the Earth? ”
Fire Phoenix is shocked, “Impossible! The information will never seep out…” It blurts out but soon shuts up.
Lin Luoran still gets it. She flashes into the s.p.a.ce and pulls out the fire phoenix.
“What is the information? What do you know?”
Fire phoenix is dodging the topic, “I have slept for a long time and I know nothing.”
Lin Luoran squints her eyes and pinches its neck. Fire phoenix yells, “I don’t know anything. Let go of me!”
Dam*! Since Lin Luoran gathered her vitality and got a primordial spirit, she has some ways to deal with these souls of the departed. Fire phoenix is tortured and it is almost stifled to death. It finally mutters and mumbles, “At that time, spells just began to develop. There were many powerful people from the monster family. The human race also valued training Qi. That was supposed to be a good era for personal ability enhancement. I don’t know how rumors started. It is said that the Earth would have an eternity calamity. Range from the powerful cultivators to the ordinary vegetation, all creatures would be the targets.”
Lin Luoran let go of the fire phoenix’s neck. She sits on the swing and mutters, “It seems that it is not a rumor at all.”
Eternity calamity… countless species on the earth died out, cultivators disappeared, and vegetation turned into ashes… aren’t they the targets?
The immortal world is also destroyed. Wait… Even G.o.ds and Buddhas in heaven were the targets. The eternity calamity is really horrible… Liao’s description, the immoral world left by G.o.ds and Buddhas, and disappearing cultivators, all of these clues seemingly unrelated before makes sense now.
If a calamity happens, the G.o.ds and Buddhas in heaven should be the first batch of targeted groups, judging from the time when the immortal world collapsed.
Seeing fire phoenix is looking at her in the distance, Lin Luoran waves at it evilly, “You just said ‘ kind of interesting’. What do you mean?”
Fire phoenix sneers, “The reason I laughed is that even if the Green Mountains were separated, the sly foxes did not escape the disaster.”
Yes. Lin Luoran thinks about it carefully and feels that what fire phoenix says is somewhat reasonable.
Cyan little fox is the most obvious evidence. The color of cyan represents the king with the highest status in the Nine-tailed Fox Family. If the Green Mountains’ fox family did survive the catastrophe, the cyan little fox would not only have an old fox as its companion pitifully.
Looking at the Green Mountains world again, she finds the Reiki is abundant. However, no monsters can develop intelligence and absorb Reiki. It proves that the fox family’s plan failed finally.
“Is it the special environment of the Green Mountains that leads to the failure of the paper crane?”
Fire Phoenix shakes its head, “There is turbid Qi in the Green Mountains. Someone is secretly making trouble with you to prevent you from finding the little fox and the old man.”
Lin Luoran nods. Fire phoenix is right. It is kind of interesting.
The eternity calamity which seems to be the reason for everything and the troublemaker who can do this in the environment of Green Mountains now—both make Lin Luoran feel that her trip here is worthwhile.
“Fairy, are you interested in traveling with the younger generation to the Green Mountains?”
White Fairy drifts over with a smile, “My pleasure.”
One person and one soul come out of the s.p.a.ce. The silver fish comes out with its wagging tail. It stares at the fire phoenix for a while, “Did you say those words on purpose?”
Fire phoenix smiles mysteriously, “Sister silver fish, what are you talking about?”
